    Description

    Photos above always show the actual items that you will get, because I never use "stock" photos. Please excuse any reflections or focus issues.
    This is one of many Press Kits that I am selling on eBay, so be sure the check out my other auctions.
    IMPORTANT NOTE: Press kits do not include the movies themselves!
    These were sent to media outlets for promotional purposes, to be used by writers doing reviews or features about the TV shows, and were not sold at retail stores.
    Details about the press kit you will get in this auction:
    This is the Press Kit for the 1992 final season of "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson".  It includes a 12"x 9" glossy folder with what appears to be Johnny's signature at the top left in silver (which I believe is printed onto the folder rather than an original autograph.) and stars & moon background.  Inside the folder are press materials touting the final season of the beloved talk show host including A Comic Perspective, Trivia Quiz, Transcript from the Debut of "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" from October 1, 1962, the Ever-Quotable Carson, Executive Producer Fred de Cordova: The Rewards Of "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson," Ed McMahon Reflects on More than Three Decades as Television's Most Famous Sidekick, A Rich History of Television Artifacts, The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson Transcript of Monologue May 22, 1992, A Timeline of Significant Events, a cover letter and contents page from NBC Television, The Carson Legacy, America Shares the Stage with Johnny Carson, a one-pager on Three Decades of "More to Come" art (does not include art), Credits for The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, A History of Success, Johnny Carson's Greatest Hits (highest-rated editions), A list of Guests on the Tonight Show from October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992, bios Johnny Carson, Ed McMahon, Doc Severinsen, executive producer Peter Lassally,  and Frederick de Cordova. Plus, you get a 150-page Collectors Series of The Hollywood Reporter from May 22, 1992. No marks or tears.
    Admittedly, the folder itself is a bit worse for wear after nearly 30 years, with several bends, impressions and general wear. But there are no tears or marks.
    Any questions, please ask!
